Most of Karcher's hand-held sweepers do not have electrical parts. They are completely mechanical. Their job is that the operator pushes the cart on which the brushes and a container for collecting waste are attached. The machine, while moving, makes the panicles rotate. It is they who sweep the debris and dust. Then a special vacuum tube sucks the waste into the hopper. The operator only has to free the container from the collected waste at the end of the cleaning. To prevent the container from overfilling with air, there are special openings in the case - air ducts, which are covered with filters that block the release of dust back into the street.
